duh, I realize now why I was asking for this.  None of the pages in the
VI. References section have the chapter values in the page titles
like the rest of the docs.

Yes, I see that now.  They are numbered as roman numerals from I to III,
rather than using chapter numbers.  Does anyone know why this was done?

true, also, I was saying if you get to a page underneath, such as in a 
search for "alter database" you end up here:
 http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/interactive/sql-alterdatabase.html
where there no good way to know where you are in the chapter hierarchy. 
Most pages have something to help you like:
 2.4. Populating a Table With Rows
 http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/interactive/tutorial-populate.html
